Adam is an exceptional physical therapist! He helped me with a nagging, painful left shoulder which was keeping me from activities I love. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to explain everything clearly. From the very first session, I felt confident in his expertise and approach. His friendliness makes every session feel welcoming and positive, making the entire recovery process so much more enjoyable. Adam is consistently on time, and if there’s ever a slight delay, he communicates promptly, which I truly appreciate. Additionally, he is quick to respond to any questions or scheduling needs. If you’re looking for a skilled, reliable, and personable PT, Adam is the one to see!" Less

Adam has been coming to my house to prepare me for a big surgery and also get me ready to come back to golf. He’s very professional always on time knows his stuff as exceptionally good doing table work.! Less

I had a phenomenal experience with Adam! After struggling with a recurring ankle injury for 5+ years, Adam's evaluation and support kick-started my recovery and helped me gain a full understanding of the injury itself. He is relatable, professional, and extremely good at what he does. I am truly so thankful for how he has helped me. I highly recommend Adam! Less

I recently tweaked my back lifting weights and was having difficulty sleeping, transitioning between sitting/standing/lying down and having sciatica pain. A friend highly recommended Adam and within 6 weeks I was feeling much better (in time for a long planned trip to Europe). His progression of exercises, bodywork and advice were super helpful, as well as his confidence that I'd be OK in time for my trip. Also loved that he came to my house for treatments which was super convenient. Highly recommend if you have anything going on in your body that you want to improve to perform at your best! Less

Adam is the best-of-the-best in PT. His knowledge and expertise are impressive. Adam relieved bilateral tingling I was having in my arms along with radiating neck pain. In just a few weeks I was back to baseline and my usual workout routine. With my work schedule, it was so convenient having him come to my house. I highly recommend Adam and his excellent care! Less

Adam is a fantastic physical therapist, and I can't recommend him highly enough. I've seen him as a patient for multiple injuries since the end of 2017. He's helped me recover from lumbar radiculopathy, achilles tendonitis, patellofemoral pain syndrome, a rotator cuff injury, and ankle pain. When he worked for a PT clinic I'd have to wait up to 8 weeks to get an appointment - now it's possible to see Adam much sooner (managed to get a same-day appointment this past month). Less

Adam has a very calm and proactive way of helping you though whatever has brought you to require Physical Therapy. He has been instrumental in the rehabilitation of my shoulders, and with a back and neck problem that was debilitating. Less

Adam was awesome! Helped me get my lower back injury healed and provided several daily PT exercises to stay healthy. I would recommend using his services before considering surgery, it works. Less

Adam is spectacular! He not only has the expertise as a Physical Therapist to help with whatever you might be working through, but he also has the ability to communicate his thoughts and make sure you understand his methodology as well. Im so grateful for having worked with Adam and highly recommend anyone who needs PT services do the same! Less

Adam brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to his work. He's incredibly personable and a pleasure to spend time with. I was amazed by his willingness to come to my house, which made my recovery from knee surgery so much easier. His expertise also helped me with my overall fitness. Having known several physical therapists over the years, I can confidently say that Adam is one of the best! Less

I am so grateful for Adam and how much he has helped me in so short of a time. I live in Hawaii and often visit my daughters in Washington.I found Adam through my son in law who Adam has helped tremendously. On my visit to Washington las month I was in so much back and hip pain when I arrived that my son in law contacted Adam and he was able to fit me in the day I arrived. I have had pain most of my life from a couple child hood injuries and adult martial arts injuries. I regularly received chiropractor treatments, saw massage therapists and PT’s over the years which helped maintain but not fix my problems. I was blown away after one visit with Adam how amazing I felt. My lower back pain was almost completely gone and I was able to hike and exercise on my trip and do the things I had been unable to do. I saw Adam a few more times and will do so again on my next trip. Adam gave me an exercise plan which is continuing my healing. When I got back home and went to my chiropractor who I have been seeing for years she was blown away at how loose my back was and that I was not in pain. She told me “I wish he would move to Hawaii so I could see him” Adam is amazing and words cannot express how grateful I am! Less

I've seen Adam for a variety of issues over the years and he is a fantastic PT. Takes the time to really make sure you understand the exercises, what impact they have, and what's going on with your recovery. Less

Adam was referred to me by my nephew who was seeing him for some hip issues. My nephew was telling me how much help and improvement he had gotten with Adam. My son was just going into the post season for swim and had increasing pain, stiffness, and decreased range of motion in one of his shoulders throughout the season. He was in tremendous pain and depressed with the idea not being able to perform. I contacted Adam and explained the situation, he figured out a way to treat him that day and truly fixed the issue. His normal range of motion was back and function improved each day over the next three weeks of postseason swim. He ended up winning state in one of his events and I really don’t think it would have been possible without Adam’s help. Thank you so much Adam. And he gave my son a program of exercises to ensure that he doesn’t have this issue in the future. Less

Adam is phenomenal! He’s so knowledgeable, compassionate and understanding. I started seeing Adam about 2 months ago and I’ve had SO MUCH improvement! It’s been so wonderful to have relief and healing after being in so much pain due to a shoulder and neck injury from a car accident. If there was a way to give Adam all the stars in the world I would . PHENOMENAL! Less

Adam has been my physical therapist for over six years. His knowledge and physical therapy strategies have helped me avoid knee and shoulder surgeries. His workouts have also aided me in correcting my muscle imbalances. Adam is professional, friendly and has been dedicated in supporting me through my physical therapy journeys. Thanks to him I can continue my career as a first responder. I highly recommend Adam and Vertical Sports Physical Therapy. Less

I have been seeing Adam, from Vertical Physical Therapy, for a couple of months. It is so convenient that he brings the service to you! I so appreciate that he has a doctorate in Physical Therapy, with the additional certificate in physical therapy, and trained on message therapy, and chiropractic. So I’m not just seeing a PT once, and then handed off to assistants. And he brings all the modalities of therapy to manage recovery to better than original. He extremely pleasant, and easy to talk with will going through treatment. I can’t say enough good about ease of having the service brought to you, while receiving best-in-class care. Less

In just a few short sessions with Adam, I noticed a significant difference in my chronic pain points. I've tried to address these multiple ways in the past and Adam's the first person that's actually helped me feel better now. Several months in and highly recommend this guy! Less

Adam at Vertical Sports PT has been instrumental in taking my golf game to the next level. I recently completed his 8 session swing speed training course and saw improvements in my power immediately. The most important part of every session was our pre-training routine. Adam led me in a focused extended warm-up targeting flexibility, mobility, balance, and key areas of the body that engage in the the golf swing. I went into every swing training session feeling 100% warmed up and loose, and took away exercises I can continue to practice to improve in all these areas. After 8 sessions I saw increased average driver swing speeds of 5+ mph (was already over 100 mph to begin with), improved average ball speeds of 10+ mph, and increased average driving distances of 20+ yards. I highly recommend Adam’s services to any golfer looking for better outcomes on the course through increased speed and power. Less

Adam was great to work with and helped me regain confidence again after rupturing my Achilles. Adam does a great job of using his knowledge to tailor a PT plan towards your individual goals. He makes the workouts fun and not repetitive. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for PT or strength training. Less

PHENOMINAL service. Old school, cares about you, listens to you, and helps you figure out what your needs are and then helps come up with an individual plan to accomplish it. Couldn’t thank Adam and his team enough for helping me. Less

Adam is incredibly knowledgeable and specific to what your needs are. His golf-focused program to increase swing speed is effective and showed phenomenal results. Can’t recommend Adam enough for any and all Physical Therapy needs you might have. Less

I came to Adam with a neck injury that wouldn't allow full range of rotational motion. Over the course of 4 weeks we trained to heal and re-strengthen the stubborn tissue in my neck and back. halfway through the program I was as good as I ever was, and by the end I'd added just under 25 yards to my driver speed with distance potential of 323 yards. I actually cracked my driver head shortly after because of all the added power. These are what we call GOOD problems to have. Go see Adam and get healed, and let him show you what your body is capable of. Less

My shoulder and back injuries were debilitating before working with Adam. They kept me from working out and living a normal life. Now I am living pain free and am able to live an active lifestyle and go to the gym regularly. If you have joint issues or live an active life you should consider working with Adam. It’s changed my life for the better! Less

Adam is as good as it gets and I can’t recommend him enough! I spent a long and hard 9 months to 10 months in physical therapy with Adam twice a week, after a major car accident. Adam was incredible during this time and I am so thankful that I had found him. He guided me through my recovery so well, he knew exactly what to do, when to push and when not to push the exercises and stretches. I honestly believe if I I had been so the a different PT, my recovery would not have been nearly as good and I would not have recovered as well as I had. I will always use Adam for any type of PT, he has earned my trust and I know the results will be nothing but the best. Less

I have had seven orthapedic surgeries on joints, ligaments, and tendons. I have worked with even more PTs. Eight years ago I found Adam, and he's the best! His knowledge base is thorough. He is skilled and attentive. While he specializes in Sports Medicine, he is respectful and patient with me, a 60-something patient. He has taught me a lot and successfully guided my recovery from each injury/surgery. He was even willing to meet with my trainer to coordinate my workouts. Plus, he's a very pleasant guy! Less

I recently had an exceptional physical therapy experience that exceeded all my expectations. Adam was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and tailored the treatment to my specific needs. Adam’s clear explanations helped me understand my exercises and progress. A bonus was that he’s a great guy and fun to spend time with. Thanks to his expertise, my recovery was efficient and enjoyable. I highly recommend Vertical Sports Physical Therapy for anyone seeking top-notch care and results. Less

During my recovery time for my knee surgery Adam was a huge help! He helped push me to work harder each day helping me cut my recovery time by 2 months. One of the reasons he’s so good at what he does is his ability to know when to encourage someone to work harder and when to take a slower approach. Less

Adam Shildmyer is the best physical therapist I've ever worked with. He's helped me recover from orthopedic surgeries and, more recently, got my body right in preparation for my first triathlon. I can't recommend him enough. Highly knowledgeable, patient, and very effective! Less
